why mitt romney? caller: as we pointed out, just like a lot of voters we explored and examined a very long list of issues. we continue to come back to something that we have seen repeatedly in our own polling and countless interviews and countless encounters with everybody from farmers to every day iowans, business executives about two things. the political climate, but even more important and that is the economy. an uncertain future for a lot of people as it relates to jobs and meaningful salaries and futures. as we said down and deliberately, it was the economy that was front and center for us in terms of who can best jump started, who can pull us out of the doldrums. who can position as not necessarily looking back at the past four years but the next four years. it is for the editorial decided to focus on governor romney. this question, does your endorsement matter? caller: i absolutely believe so. this is not a battle cry for mitt romney supporters to go out there and vote for the governor. what t

romney, changing. two weeks prior he said -- i thought he said he likes the timeline in afghanistan and we have to get out quickly. at the end of the day, the accumulation of what the american people saw in that debate was pretty much mitt romney saying, me too to obama's foreign policy. it was almost like everything obama would say, mitt romney couldn't say i agree, but clearly he was agreeing with the president's policy geared u. i thought it was interesting that mitt romney almost wanted benghaziway from the then gauz comments. when president obama is speaking, he is not speaking just to the electorate but other countries. i thought he did very well in that debate. i do not think that might grow issue is an important public policy issue. with florida voters, with a large jewish population. especially in southeast florida. they care about how the president has treated as real. and by all accounts they are very happy. host: bill on twitter -- what can we expect from another obama term? guest: floridia

mitt romney is shameless. our endorsement must go to the incumbent, a competent leader who against tough odds has guided the country through catastrophe instead -- he has earned a second term. mitt romney does not deserve a first. that is from the salt lake city tribune. steve is on the phone from florida, a republican line. good morning. caller: hello, how are you. i believe the endorsements do matter, but i believe in newspapers and any other publications that i have followed are quite honestly right wing speakers. i do not think they should put out endorsements because somebody like myself, i have to be able to talk to people -- a newspaper can reach millions of people. who is writing the endorsement? they have a much larger scale to go and talk about who they want to vote for. i think it ought to do the news and that is just picked. host: thank you for the call. this is from the twitter page. another look at the salt lake city tribune. obama has earned a second term. caller: good morning and thank you to c

the mitt romney first debate bounce has disappeared, though the survey shows that the mitt romney backers are far more energy -- energized about him. in "the washington post" they write -- "it all comes down to foreign policy"? he writes that the seat of the presidential base could well focus on this. "president obama and mitt romney are headed to florida for their final debate, with national polls suggesting that the race is tied and with a terrorist attack in libya dominating the headlines." as you call in this morning, what would you like to see asked at tonight's foreign policy debate? judy, joining us from south carolina. what would you like to hear talked about? caller: i want to know why he did not do anything on iran and why he did not meet with israel. host: who are you referring to? caller: obama. i am a mitt romney supporter. i feel like obama is definitely not christian. i feel like he has definitely not followed up on israel to meet with their prime minister, and i do not like that. i do not think that was right. host: all right. in, not so, tennessee. caller: good morning, w
